Tofu Chocolate Mousse

May 19, 2009 – 19:38

Tofu chocolate mousse has recently been embraced by a number of mainstream culinary authorities, but for many vegans it’s been basic fare for years – either as a pie filling, cake topping, or simply as a decadent dessert. This is my latest twist on the classic, with a dash of espresso and whole cane sugar [...]

Vanilla Custard Brownies

December 2, 2008 – 19:40

I found a recipe for non-vegan cheesecake brownies through tastespotting, and it didn’t take me long to veganize it. I used my trusted brownie recipe and added a topping made with silken tofu, oat cream, and agave syrup, and the end result was really just deliciously decadent. The topping is more like a creamy custard [...]

Chocopricot Cupcakes

November 10, 2008 – 21:47

We’ve had a bit of an unintentional blogging break, but here’s a sweet treat to make things right again! Chocolate and apricot are such a classic combination, and the addition of cardamom in the mousse topping added that little extra something in these birthday cupcakes.

I baked these for the birthday party of a niece, and [...]

Dream Chocolate Cake

Not very cakey at all, Heikki described this cake as a blend of cake batter and chocolate frosting baked into one wonderful concoction. Only for those who love fudgy cakes and moist centers!

I [...]

Blueberry Lime Ice Cream with Matcha Powder

July 16, 2008 – 11:59

We are finally back from holidays – well rested and happy to be in our own kitchen again! This ice cream, which actually was my first homemade ice cream ever, is something I’ve had in mind for a few months now. We don’t have an ice cream maker, and without one the process requires a [...]

Boozy Chocolate Pie

May 15, 2008 – 22:58

This pie was very easy to make, and quite delicious as well. I found the original filling recipe through Eric at VeganGrub, and my only additions were a little bit of Grand Marnier, some salt to make the chocolate flavor shine, and a little bit more agave syrup than Eric used. Heikki thought that the [...]

Silky Mocha Pie

December 11, 2007 – 21:27

The crunchy chocolate crust and the layer of dark chocolate shavings on top are a nice conrast to the tofu-creamy mocha filling of this pie.

I got this recipe from a friend, who had tried and liked the original non-vegan version. My filling has silken tofu and soy yogurt instead of eggs and cream, and I [...]
